Finished Socks #1

My first pair of socks for 2012! These are the Sock Knitters Annoynomous Mystery Sock for January. The pattern is called Bláthnat by Carrie Sullivan (irishgirlieknits). These were knit using The Plucky Knitter's Primo in Fingering in a special color - One Hit Wonder. I bought a bunch of Primo, thinking I'll never be able to buy them from Sarah's online store. They are really nice to knit with, but the yarn is a little thinner than what I'm used to. I need to give up my 2.5 mm needles if I want to continue using this yarn. And you know how much I detest knitting with 2.25 mm needles.

Here are the Primo skeins I brought back from Portland:

So many blue skeins! The lavender skein I used is on the left side, bottom...

I was hoping to complete 15 pairs of socks and 12 shawls - which would give me the ability to fill out the alphabet with my 27 projects. Well, the first 2 projects I've finished start with letter B... Hmm... Maybe that's not such a good idea afterall.

Your Blathnat's came out beautifully! I'm using Primo too for mine and still need to cast on sock #2. Hopefully this weekend I will. 15 socks and 12 shawls is an impressive goal but it seems like you're making good progress so far.
